    Answer:

    (121.576 ; 273.424)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given the data:

    175, 125, 180, 220, 240, 245

    We can calculate the mean and standard deviation

    Mean = Σx/ n = 1185 / 6 = 197.5

    Standard deviation = 46.125 (calculator)

    The confidence interval :

    Mean ± margin of error

    Margin of Error = Tcritical * s/sqrt(n)

    Tcritical at 99%, df = n – 1 ; 6 – 1 = 5

    Tcritical = 4.032

    Margin of Error = 4.032 * 46.125/√6

    Margin of error = 75.924

    Confidence interval :

    197.5 ± 75.924

    Lower boundary = 197.5 – 75.924 = 121.576

    Upper boundary = 197.5 + 75.924 = 273.424

    (121.576 ; 273.424)
